My strategy for balancing the work aspect of creating with the non-work aspects of creating is to just not worry about it. I do my work when I need to or when I want to, and all other times I do other things that I enjoy. As long as I am doing things that I enjoy, I will be creative, because being creative is something that I enjoy. I do agree that having a deadline really helps the creative process, because without a deadline there is a tendency to put off things indefinitely. However, the most important thing to remember is that writing, directing, etc. are not chores; they are all things that I really like doing. I find it much easier to get into the creative mindset when I remember this. When being creative becomes a chore, it is time to find something else to do.
